ESO data reduction pipeline for the HAWK-I instrument
This is the data reduction pipeline for the HAWK-I instrument of the
Very Large Telescope (VLT) from the European Southern Observatory (ESO).
.
HAWK-I is a near-infrared (0.85-2.5 μm ) wide-field imager. It is being
offered for the first time in Period 81. The instrument is cryogenic (120 K,
detectors at 80 K) and has a full reflective design. The light passes four
mirrors and two filter wheels before hitting a mosaic of four Hawaii 2RG 2048
* 2048 pixels detectors. The final F-ratio is F/4.36 ( 1 arcsec on the sky
corresponds to 169 μm on the detector).
